strongest etched it was a bomb comes from isis itself, from terrorists talking specifically about a bomb. tonight president obama weighed in for the first time. >> i think there is a possibility that there was a bomb on board and, we're taking that very seriously. >> reporter: yet, there is still no hard evidence of just what happened to the russian jet and u.s. intelligence officials told select members of congress at a classified briefing that the bomb theory is still far from certain. >> well, i think it's going to take a forensic examination of the wreckage of the plane. examination of the bodies, and a full investigation at sharm el sheikh airport. and the focus tonight for u.s. and british intelligence is on security or the black of it. at the airport in sharm el sheikh and fears if it was indeed a bomb, isis had an insider here with access to a luggage hold. >> if isis has been able to do that at that airport, how many

other airports have they been able to infiltrate or working on right now. >> reporter: tonight thousands stranded as british flights were canceled. the head of security was reportedly removed or promoted. alex marquardt is at the airport tonight. >> reporter: p security is padding down little kids, everyone taking off their skew shoes. >> brian ross with us now. back to the intercepts, reportedly they heard conversations about a bomb? >> yes, they are trying to assess if they are boasting or gloating or knew what they were talking about and future attacks. >> and bob woodruff sat down with ash carter who also acknowledged it might be a bomb and bob asking, could it be isis? >> do you think there's a possibility isis could have been

involved in this? >> weather is always a possibility, and isis is me te sized around the world. but i don't have any information. it gives us an independent view. >> bob woodruff with the defense secretary. this, as millions of americans get ready to travel for thanksgiving. britain concerned because they take direct flights from that region. even here, there's word the u.s. is beefing up security in the next 24 hours. enhanced security for planes coming to america from other parts of the world. abc's david kerley covers aviation. >> reporter: tonight with airlines estimating more than 25 million americans will fly over thanksgiving. nearly a million more than last year, will they see changes at security after the egypt crash? >> the obama administration is reviewing a number of different steps that we can take to enhance security for commercial flights bound for the united states from certain foreign airports. >> reporter: a former homeland security official suggests tsa

is likely considering whether to send a security directive to airlines flying into the u-s specifically from the middle east to increase security. security there is often different than what americans see. in the usa, carry-on bags are screened. and in atlanta we watched checked bags heading to a special tsa underground screening room. each bag run through an explosive detection scanner. each day, more than a million checked bags in the u.s. are checked. >> but you can't stop everything, can you? >> you cannot stop everything. that's why we need a system of aviation security that is dynamic. >> reporter: gaps in tsa security were exposed this summer with inspectors hiding materials on their body were missed 95 percent of the time. the author of the report says progress has been made since then. the other concern "the insider" remember this case in atlanta. an airport worker using his i-d to get around security and allegedly help smuggle guns. atlanta now says the vast majority of workers are screened

but there is no standard although the tsa recently took action to improve security. david? >> david kerley with us, thank you, david. now to the stunning case the veteran officer who staged his own suicide but authorities are now calling the ultimate betrayal. tonight new questions here, what if anything did his wife and one much his sons know. that veteran p could, nicknamed g.i. joe, a father of four. his wife seen overcome after his death. and authorities now investigating that mother and one of their sons. and you're about to see some of the officers' own text messages. abc's alex perez is outside of chicago. >> reporter: tonight, our abc affiliate wls reporting police are investigating whether the widow and son of lieutenant joe gliniewicz in connection with the scheme to steal thousand of dollars from the police yoh program which he ran.

>> joe was my best friend, my world, my hero. >> reporter: the community embracing the officer's family amid the massive manhunt for his supposed killers. for two months, his widow melodie dismissed speculation it was suicide. >> there were things that were happening in our life that people who are going to commit suicide would never do. >> reporter: his son dj pointing to the dangers of the job. >> he's told me many times. he'd sit down in his car and be like i hope i go home. >> reporter: but yesterday, that revelation -- joe glienowitz had staged his own death, shooting himself twice in the chest, over and under his bulletproof vest. "s" he committed the ultimate betray betrayal. >> reporter: police say he thought the new city administrator, ann marrin, was about to expose him as a thief stealing thousands from that youth program he ran with his wife. in a text message to an unidentified person, glinowitz wrote -- "she hates me." and "she has now demanded a complete inventory of the

explorer program." today, investigators tell me he even looked into hiring a hitman to kill marrin. >> that he wanted to speak to this high-ranking motorcycle gang member to initiate a hit op the village manager. >> reporter: the hero police officer, once honored with signs around town, now a villain. and, david, an investigator tells me he can neither confirm or deny whether the lieutenant's family is part of the criminal investigation. so far, through their attorney, the family said they're cooperating with authorities. >> alex perez on the case tonight. we have new developments for the race of 2016 the two men leading the republican field, now under secret service protection. and it comes as trump getting ready to host "saturday night live" even after protesters hoped to stop him and trump in a war of words with marco rubio

it was meant for republican party business expenses but rubio acknowledged using the card to pay for things like home repairs and a family reunion. rubio admits this was a mistake and tell us he always paid for personal charges out of his own pocket. >> every month the bill came to my house and i would review it and if it was something personal i paid for it and if it was something that was political the party paid for it. >> reporter: and on the trail rubio gave it right back to trump. >> i find it ironic that the only person running for president that's ever declared a bankruptcy four times in the last 25 years is attacking anyone on finances. and jon karl getting the one-on-one with rubio on his finances. did rubio tell you himself when he plans to release those charge card statements? >> he did. rubio tells me he plans to release all of the records of the american express card for the four years he was speaker of the house and had the republican party card. he said when he does that, he'll see all of the charges for personal experiences he paid for

himself out of his own personal pocket. >> thanks. and dr. ben carson making headlines of his own doubling down on. theory of the egyptian pyramids, used to store grain in aaron shebt egypt and not tombs for far rose. and also weighing in for transgender rights saying they should have separate transgender bathrooms saying it's not fair to make everybody else uncomfortable. we turn to a former president. and what he said about donald rumsfeld. a new biography giving a scathing review of his two sons' closest advisers while two he were president. today rumsfeld is taking aim at the elder president bush's age. here's martha raddatz now. >> reporter: it is a book of love, war and just plain gossip. according to "the new york
